WHY I DON'T DATE AN OLDER MAN

Zodwa says she will never date older guys again because she says one becomes a servant and often has no
say in the relationship.

"I should be getting a rich old guy... but my
boyfriend is a good man. I know, a rich guy will make my life miserable or make
me feel unworthy. I have been there dear, I am not interested in going back.
The first time I was in the paper was actually because I was dating Mandla
Mthembu, yes the one who used to date Khanyisile Mbau... so I am over such
things," she told The Times.

Zodwa said all she wanted was the freedom to pursue her
happiness and somehow being with a younger guy gave her that.

"I am not dating a Ben 10 because I need attention or
looking for love. I know what love feels and looks like, that is not what I am
after. I am after happiness, being in a free space and living my best
life."

The entertainer said she was happy because her boyfriend
was independent and not insecure.

She said she loved the fact that her arrangement with her
boyfriend, whom she revealed worked at the bank, doesn't give her stress.

"I don't want stress, I am an adult. I don't want a
person who will require things I can't give, wanting me to cook when I come
back from gigs or telling me I am making more money than him or telling me I am
embarrassing him with my job."

Zodwa also said she wasn't interested in pleasing society
or falling into the pressure of thinking she needs to get married.

"I don't want to get married. For what? Just so I can
go home and show people that someone wants to marry me? I don't even want to
get married. I want to die with my freedom intact, I want to die happy! I won't
buy status through a man, so me and my boyfriend's little setting is just
perfect."
